Hi from a new-ish football fan!

Hi, I'm a semi-new football fan from Baltimore County who commutes to Redskins territory. They look at me strangely in my #82 jersey Down There. These past few years have been a great time to be a Ravens fan. The forums are really helpful in learning about the games. Love the emoticons, too!

Re: Hi from a new-ish football fan!

Welcome aboard!

Just an observation, for what it's worth. It seems to me that many regular posters don't look at the "Introductions" forum here very often. So you may not get a ton of feedback on this particular thread. But feel free to join in the discussions on the main Ravens 24x7 forum; you'll find lots of threads to choose from!

Oh, and regarding Redskins' fans, yes, they're a strange breed. Few of them will openly admit theirs is the second best NFL franchise in Maryland. And by "second best", I mean pathetic.
